Probable security breech - how do I fix it?
Hi
Using Vista 64 bit Home Premium, MSE, and Spybot, Yesterday I posted a pic on an eBay forum using this code a href="http://tinypic.com" target="_blank"img src="http://ixx.tinypic.com/image.jpg" border="0" alt="Image and video hosting by TinyPic"/a (The only things changed above are some image IDs.) I used this particular image format because the other three I tried resulted only in "link" with an underscore, and this one produced an image. About an hour after posting the pic, I noticed that you could click on the image in the eBay forum post, and it would take you to the image host site. Once there, another window with a "browse" button allowed you to go directly into the files on my computer! I had the eBay post containing the image deleted, but it may haves been too late--about 2 hours after the image was posted. I deleted the image on my computer that used the filename that was uploaded, but I still have the original image from my camera on my computer. I haven't been able to delete the image at the image hosting site. I don't have an account set up there, so there's no password protection. What should I do now? |
